[nagdu] going to church

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Julie and everyone,

    When I received my first dog Nash from GEB in 1975 a couple took me to 
their congregational church during my last weekend of training. They picked 
me up from the school and brought me back when the church service was over. 
That previous evening I spent several hours visiting my aunt and cousin at 
their home in York Town Heights. They also took me to a local shopping mall 
where I bought some things and we ate dinner. On both outings Nash went with 
me and we weren't accompanied by any school staff. It was a wonderful 
experience.

The topic of going to church while at guide dog school has fascinated me for 
years.  So today I'm just going to ask, how exactly does this work?  I mean 
is there one church that everyone goes to?  Or do you get to pick which one 
you want to attend?  what if your religion isn't Christian, will they take 
you to a Temple, Mosque or other place of worship, given that there is one 
in the area?  Also what if your day of worship isn't Sunday, are there 
options for worship services on other days?

I'm asking out of sheer curiosity.  I don't attend church myself.

Julie
